Saw them at Hyde Park, and they were entertaining. I never cared much about their records after Sheer Heart Attack though, that operatic and overproduced shite was the reason the punks stepped in to clear the decks.

Had a ticket to see them supporting Mott in '74 ! The concert was cancelled though due to Ian Hunter being knackered.

Never bothered after that.

I saw Mott the Hoople about then, at the Top Rank. They were alright, I just wanted to hear them play 'Thunderbuck Ram', which of course they did.
I can't remember who supported them then though.

 

[Yorkie]

Either people are lying about their age, or everyone over 50 is in bed.

I was.

 

[surrey jim]

20-30 and like them

 

[Trufflehound]

Agree with NMH that only the first three albums are worth listening to.

Live however, few can argue with Freddie's mastery as a crowd-pleasing showman. Always good value.

 

[Dandyman]

40 - 50 and can't stand their pompous bullshit.

 

[n1 gull]

Bloody awful band.

 

[Heffle Gull]

Prefer the early stuff (first 4 or 5 albums). but on the whole Queen Rock

Wish I had seen them Live



oh and I'm 39

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Rather like them.

 

[Perry's Tracksuit Bottoms]

I only opened this thread to vote for a republic

 

[Man of Harveys]

Like them a lot. In me 30s, as David Brent used to say.

Especially fond of the Freddie Mercury-penned pianoey ones, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy etc.

 

[aftershavedave]

absolutely tripe.

music of the very worst kind!

 

[Early Doors]

Great band.

Listened to A day at the races this morning. Haven't played it for a while and forgot just how brilliant an album it is.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

They're ok. I remember absolutely loving them when I was twelve, and I went to the Wembley stadium gig in 86, but they're the sort of band you grow out of.

 

[Trigger]

20-30, like them.

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Wouldn't go that far, but I think their pre-80's stuff was possibly their best. Their last couple of albums were getting back to that standard, though.
